American Jesuits is a comprehensive historical account of the Society of Jesus in the United States, written by James Joseph Walsh. The book explores the origins of the Jesuit order and its arrival in America in the early 17th century. It also delves into the role the Jesuits played in the development of American Catholicism, as well as their contributions to education, social justice, and missionary work. The book covers key figures in the Jesuit order, including Saint Isaac Jogues, Saint John de Brebeuf, and Father Pierre-Jean De Smet. Walsh also examines the challenges the Jesuits faced, including anti-Catholic sentiment, financial difficulties, and conflicts with other religious orders. Overall, American Jesuits is a fascinating look at the history of one of the most influential religious orders in America.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
